Hello
everyone! Version
0.4.0 of Newlife is finished and I've released it on Patreon.
Early-access Patrons can find it in the creations section here. The changelog is below.The previous version is now public. You can download it using the links on the right-hand side of the blog. The 0.3.27 changelog is here.As usual, saved files & templates from older versions probably won't work with newer ones. For
new players - just use one of the links to the right to get a zipfile containing Newlife. Once unzipped, you'll see a folder containing .jar and .exe files. Either one of these will run the game.For
either version you'll need to have Java installed. A lot of programs
use Java so you might well already have it. If the jar shows up as an
unrecognised file type, then you probably don't. In that case you can
get it from http://www.java.com/. The
exe should tell you if you don't have the right version on your
computer, but you'll still need to install java to run the game.There's a guide for new players here which includes some troubleshooting tips for installation & downloading.

This version completes the Friendship update and voting will start next month on which major update will be next.

Here's the full changelog for this version:

Major
changes & additions:

Added
a new socialisation event.

You
can now go to the bar with sophisticated female NPCs as well as
party-girls, and they will have different content when this would be
appropriate for an action.

Minor
changes & bugfixes:

Fixes
to text issues. Thanks to Cubano and Wasda for reporting problems
they found.

Fixed
a bug where the “rough sex” flag wasn't properly being passed to
the makeout scene when you have sex with the repairman after lying
to him about payment.

Fixed
an issue with the blackjack scene reported by Wasada, Death25 and
Symbiotic Life where the descriptions of the character's breasts
were using the wrong sizes.

Fixed
a bug that was preventing the “Comfort Her” option from showing
up in the repeatable work friend scene for some characters. I also
changed the action conditions so it won't show up for bitchy
characters that are given the option to be mean to her – they'll
now just choose between bullying or ignoring her. Bitchy characters
with a high relationship will still be able to access the comfort
action.

Fixed
a bug reported by David on patreon where the blackjack scene would
error if the first round ended with all players going bust.

Fixed
a bug with scene transitions in the blackjack scene reported by
Kayla.

Fixed
an issue with the blackjack game reported by Monokuma so that aces
can now properly count as 11.

Fixed
an issue reported by OrangeJuice where an innocent sales colleague
with the dull trait can bore you about her work without any
reference to the fact that she has the same job as you. She will now
still bore you about her work, but the text is slightly different to
reflect that.

Fixed
some issues affecting the availability of adult party games.

Added
a new NPC action to the bar scene where a man you're talking to can
give you a compliment.

Added
a small new NPC action to the date at home.

Added
some short follow-up actions to the party-girl flashing in the house
party.

Reduced
the weighting and tightened the conditions for men putting your legs
over their shoulders during missionary sex. This should now be
significantly less common unless the NPC has the vigorous lover
trait.

Added
a new NPC action to the missionary scene where the man can open your
legs if you're still keeping them together.

Added
some Male-Male options to the spin-the-bottle party game, as
requested on an inner-circle thread a while back. If there's more
than one male player then you'll be prompted at the start of the
scene whether to allow MM pairings.
